alright, back when i first got my wheeler i could start it in nuetral without the clutch being pulled and i could start it in any gear with the clutch pulled in. awhile back it started to not start in gear anymore. then a few weeks ago i was out riding and it wouldnt start in nuetral without the clutch pulled in. then the same day it just wouldnt start at all. i messed with the battery a bit and i guess the screws just had a bad connection cuz it started right up after i tightened them, but still wouldnt start in gear. and now its messin up again, the lights would work but pressing the start button wouldnt do anything. it finally started but i know its gonna do it agian eventually. its like something is goin out slowly as i ride it more, any ideas?

It is one of two switches. Either the switch located off your clutch or the switch located down by the shift lever. This is the neutral switch.
